Fit for Service - Non-Destructive Testing (NDT)

The first NDT with “pass or fail“ process for ecoFIT (PE) and PROGEF (PP) butt and electro fusion welds

Non-Destructive Testing (NDT)

Using ultrasonic technology, we are able to off er our customers the highest quality control NDT for our butt fusion welds in ecoFIT, PROGEF and electrofusion for ELGEF. Key projects around the world rely on NDT technology to ensure highest safety and quality of the weld area in metal piping. Today, GF Piping Systems' approach to total quality management has resulted in the world’s first NDT Service with a pass or fail statement on the butt fusion and electrofusion weld of ecoFIT, PROGEF and ELGEF systems. Once passed we offer a 10 year weld warranty.

Scanning
Working with our international partner, we are able to scan butt fusion welds with our customized ultrasonic sensors. We can test typically between 20-30 welds per day, saving money during the NDT test day.

Analysis
Using the data obtained, we are able with our unique algorithm, coupled with our extensive testing and own highest quality standards to provide a pass or fail statement on the butt fusion weld.

Certification and warranty
To provide peace of mind to our customers, we will issue a “Fit for Service” statement for each weld. Ensuring the quality and expected life of the piping system, with a 10 year warranty.

Fit for Service

GF Piping Systems understands the challenges faced along the project cycle: From owners and engineering companies involved in specifications and design, to logistical solutions for on time installation of goods, to the safe commissioning and operation of the plant.
